• The programme remains even after the Programme

Play ends. When you press the H button, you can

play the same programme again.

• The programme remains until you erase it or turn

off the player. If you replace discs, the programmed

disc and track numbers remain. So, the player plays

only the existing disc and track numbers. However,

the disc and track numbers that aren’t found in the

player or on the disc are deleted from the

programme, and the rest of the programme is played

in the programmed order.

• For the recording to the A side or B side of the

cassette tape, you can pause Programme Play.

find any problem in adjusting the recording level

precisely.

• Peak Search does not operate while you open the

disc tray by pressing the EX-CHANGE button.

Additional Information

Precautions

On safety

• Caution — The use of optical instruments with this

product will increase eye hazard.

• Should any solid object or liquid fall into the

cabinet, unplug the player and have it checked by

qualified personnel before operating it any further.

• Discs with non-standard shapes (e.g., heart, square,

star) cannot be played on this unit. Attempting to do

so may damage the unit. Do not use such discs.

On power sources

• Before operating the player, check that the

operating voltage of the player is identical with

your local power supply. The operating voltage is

indicated on the nameplate at the rear of the player.

• The player is not disconnected from the AC power

source (mains) as long as it is connected to the wall

outlet, even if the player itself has been turned off.

• If you are not going to use the player for a long

time, be sure to disconnect the player from the wall

outlet. To disconnect the AC power cord (mains

lead), grasp the plug itself; never pull the cord.

• AC power cord must be changed only at the

qualified service shop.

On placement

• Place the player in a location with adequate

ventilation to prevent heat build-up in the player.

• Do not place the player on a soft surface such as a

rug that might block the ventilation holes on the

bottom.

• Do not place the player in a location near heat

sources, or in a place subject to direct sunlight,

excessive dust or mechanical shock.

On operation

• If the player is brought directly from a cold to a

warm location, or is placed in a very damp room,

moisture may condense on the lenses inside the

player. Should this occur, the player may not

operate properly. In this case, remove the disc and

leave the player turned on for about an hour until

the moisture evaporates.

On adjusting volume

• Do not turn up the volume while listening to a

portion with very low level inputs or no audio

signals. If you do, the speakers may be damaged

when a peak level portion is played.

On cleaning

• Clean the cabinet, panel and controls with a soft

cloth slightly moistened with a mild detergent

solution. Do not use any type of abrasive pad,

scouring powder, or solvent such as alcohol or

benzine.

If you have any questions or problems

concerning your player, please consult your

nearest Sony dealer.

Notes on CDs

On handling CDs

• To keep the disc clean, handle the disc by its edge.

Do not touch the surface.

• Do not stick paper or tape on the disc.

• Do not expose the disc to direct sunlight or heat

sources such as hot air ducts, nor leave it in a car

parked in direct sunlight as there can be

considerable rise in temperature inside the car.

• Do not use any commercially available stabilizer. If

you do, the disc and the player may be damaged.

• After playing, store the disc in its case.

On cleaning

• Before playing, clean the disc with a cleaning cloth.

Wipe the disc from the centre out.

• Do not use solvents such as benzine, thinner,

commercially available cleaners or anti-static spray

intended for vinyl LPs.

Notes on CD-R/CD-RW playback

• Discs recorded on CD-R/CD-RW drives may not be

played back because of scratches, dirt, recording

condition, or the drive’s characteristics. Besides, the

discs, which are not yet finalized at the end of

recording, cannot be played back.
